{"product_id":"the-sound-of-many-waters-robin-a-crawford-9781780279114","title":"The Sound of Many Waters: A Journey Along the River Tay","description":"With the widest catchment area of any river in Britain, the Tay drains much of the lower Highlands of Scotland. A vast network of lochs and smaller bodies of water feed the rivers Isla, Garry, Tummel, Almond and Earn, which all in turn flow into this mighty river as it cuts its way through the landscape.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRobin Crawford has a very personal connection to this river, and as he walks along its banks, from its source on Ben Lui until it spills into the North Sea at Dundee, we find parallels between his own experience and the broader history of the Tay.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReaching back to a prehistoric fish found near Balruddery in Perthshire, we follow its story through time to the present day, with detours to seek gold, clans, battles, forts, disasters, witches and whisky en route.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn amongst this broader sweep of history is Robin's own story. As he walks, he reminisces and reflects on the small moments of a life on which events turn.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robin A.
